dankicksass Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 That's a fine looking machine. I dig the monochrome paint scheme.
tgcj Posted August 5, 2014 Author Posted August 5, 2014 Next step is gone. Finished the rocker panels today. Next step is to get wax into the rocker panels for preservation.
tgcj Posted August 7, 2014 Author Posted August 7, 2014 Here is a pic of my new front bumper. It's only a prototype, but it looks good. What did you mean?
tgcj Posted August 12, 2014 Author Posted August 12, 2014 Today I built in a brand new adjustable Rubicon Express trackbar, Rubicon Express disconnects and a new stearing damper.
tgcj Posted August 24, 2014 Author Posted August 24, 2014 Last day I finished the 4wd drive. So everything is working fine. Next week i will try to get it to the street legal. Next step is a Color change and the custom bumper. Pics will following.
tgcj Posted September 3, 2014 Author Posted September 3, 2014 Here are some news. I´m starting with the new colors with grey wrapping. First check everything and made eliminate small rusty parts.
tgcj Posted September 6, 2014 Author Posted September 6, 2014 Here some more pictures. It's a gray-silver color. Hope to finish everything soon.
91Pioneer Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 That's original! I'd be interested to see how the vinyl holds up over time, after getting dirty & washed, etc. Keep us posted on longevity. Will your truck sit outside all the time or will it be in a garage when not being driven?
tgcj Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 The truck will stay outside all the time. It's a special vinyl for car's. Washing is no problem.
sinkrun Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 Very nice work would like to hear more about the vinyl such as cost and manufacture.
tgcj Posted September 9, 2014 Author Posted September 9, 2014 I don´t know the manufacture of the vinyl. It´s from a ebay online shop here in germany. The colour name is gray-silver matte.
tgcj Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Here is the final of the front but with the old bumper. Next days I will finish the back.
tgcj Posted September 12, 2014 Author Posted September 12, 2014 Finished the rear fenders today. But only one picture. It's heavy raining the last two days.
tgcj Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 It´s a long time ago if I wrote something. Now the Manche is back on the street legal. Everything is all right and the german "Tuev" says OK. So I take my lincenc plates an can drive legal. The next step will to change the bad tires, and rebuilt the rear bumper. I will sandblaster it and put some new colour on. Today I have no new pics, but I will post some more the next weeks.
tgcj Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 I will take the original. But throw out the german trailer hitch construction. It´s lot too big. Mayb I find a good custom one I will change it. For the front I have a custom one, lieing in the garage. I have to make some final things to mount them. I will post some pictures if it´s ready. On the second page there are some pictures of the front bumper.
